Best Answer

After he died, the court-appointed estate administrator or executor (and probably an attorney) would determine who owned the property and who should receive it under interpretation of the will or the laws of intestacy, after satisfaction of other obligations, and subject to court approval. The spouse will typically get all the property from the deceased, though if there are minor children it may be split out. The spouse usually has Homestead or Dower rights in the property.
